Victron Energy SmartSolar MPPT 100/20 Solar Charge Controller - Up to 48 VDC

SmartSolar MPPT 100/20 - Up to 48 VDC

A solar charger gathers energy from your solar panels, and stores it in your batteries. Using the latest, fastest technology, SmartSolar maximises this energy-harvest, driving it intelligently to achieve full charge in the shortest possible time. SmartSolar maintains battery health, extending its life.

The SmartSolar charge controller will even recharge a severely depleted battery. It can operate with a battery voltage as low as 0 Volts, provided the cells are not permanently sulphated or otherwise damaged.

MPPT: Ultra Fast Maximum Power Point Tracking

By constantly monitoring the voltage and current output of your solar (PV) panels, MPPT technology ensures that every drop of available power is rinsed out of your panels, and harvested for storage. The advantage of this is most noticeable when the sky is partially clouded, and light intensity is constantly changing.

Remote Monitoring and Control

Remotely control and monitor the extensive features of your SmartSolar MPPT charger with built-in Bluetooth by pairing it with your smartphone or other device via VictronConnect. If your installation is connected to the internet Victron Remote Management Portal (VRM) provides access to the full power of your MPPT, anytime, anywhere; both services are free to use. For remote installations - even when there is no internet connection or phone signal nearby - you may be able to monitor your MPPT by Bluetooth-pairing with a LoRaWAN (long-range wide area network) device, available optionally.

Load output

The intelligent Load output function prevents damage caused by running batteries 'flat'. You can configure the voltage at which SmartSolar disconnects a load - thereby preventing excessive drain on your batteries. And here's the clever bit: SmartSolar will attempt a 100% recharge every day. If it can't - during periods of poor weather - it raises the disconnect voltage, daily, until it achieves success. We call this feature BatteryLife because it maintains the health, and extends the life of your battery.

The Victron Energy SmartSolar MPPT 100/20 is a highly efficient solar charge controller designed to optimize energy harvesting from your solar panels and extend your battery life. It features advanced MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking) technology that continuously monitors your panels’ voltage and current, ensuring maximum power extraction even under variable weather conditions or partial shading. Its ability to operate with battery voltages as low as 0 volts allows it to recharge severely depleted batteries, making it suitable for a wide range of solar energy applications.

This model offers remote monitoring and control via built-in Bluetooth, enabling users to manage and oversee the system through the VictronConnect app on smartphones or other devices. For installations connected to the internet, the Victron Remote Management Portal (VRM) allows full access to system data from anywhere, providing real-time insights and control. Additionally, optional LoRaWAN connectivity extends remote monitoring capabilities even in areas with limited internet or cellular coverage, making it ideal for off-grid and remote setups.

One of the key features of the SmartSolar MPPT 100/20 is its intelligent load output, which prevents battery damage caused by excessive discharge. The controller can be configured to disconnect loads when the battery voltage drops below a set threshold, protecting the battery’s health. It also employs a dynamic recharge feature, attempting to fully recharge the battery daily. If weather conditions prevent full recharge, the controller gradually increases the disconnect voltage, ensuring ongoing battery health and longevity, which is vital for maintaining reliable energy storage and system performance.

Designed by Victron Energy, the SmartSolar MPPT 100/20 adheres to UL safety standards, guaranteeing quality and safety for both residential and commercial solar installations. Its compact size and lightweight design make installation straightforward, and its robust construction ensures durability in various environmental conditions. Whether used for small off-grid systems, RVs, or larger solar setups, this controller provides an intelligent, reliable solution for maximizing your solar energy harvest and extending your battery system’s lifespan.
